Allegheny, PA, 15219was in two vehicle accident bac was 0.99 I was told by officer took blood test no injuries but was vehicle damage

Utah, UT, 84005At abt 730 am on saturday, april 2, 2011 I was driving east on sr-73 from the ranches in eagle mountain headed to Grease Monkey in Pleasant Grove for work (no longer employed because of this situation). I was NOT speeding, and used my turn signal with my headlights on, to head south on redwood road. As I approached the stop light, there was a Saratoga Springs Police Officer in the east turn lane, facing north to turn west on sr-73. I slowed to stop at the light which was red, and as I pulled to the light it turned green so I proceeded to continue my turn. I got about 1/4 mile down redwood road, & the police officer made a u-turn. I turned into the smiths parking lot to go buy a 12 pack of soda for work, parked, and was in the process of locking & closing my door when the officer pulled behind me & turned on his lights.He asked me to get back in my vehicle then asked me for my reg., ins., & license. Gave him my info, & we talked for about 5 minutes. he then walked back to his durango not calling in my plates until this point. he came back to my car, and told me my license was suspended, and asked me to exit the vehicle. He looked at my eyes and said I was "high or drunk or something." He gave me a field sobriety test, which I "failed misserably" he said. He read me my rights and told me he was placing me under arrest for DUI, placed me in his vehicle & called for my car to be towed. I was taken to SSPD & given an breathalizer, blood test, and a UA. I tested positive on the Ua for THC. It had been at least a week since I had smoked weed, and I blew 0's for alcohol. I challenged the officers decision for DUI & a Utah County Sheriff came to give me more tests. Apparently I failed the second set of tests, worse than the first set at which point the SSPD officer said for me to call someone with a valid license to pick me up. My fiance came & I was released into her custody. I do have damage to my vehicle, but all my required lights work, turn signals, brakes, high & low beam headlights, parking lights, tail lights etc. I have tint, as well as all my mirrors. I am a Utah State Safety Inspector & all the reasons the officer gave me for stopping me were Safety related. The last time I asked the officer about stopping me I asked him "So if I were to have continued east on sr-73 instead of turning south on redwood road would you have pulled me over?" His response "I had my eye on you ever since you came over the hill. I had you on radar." I asked him "was I speeding?" "No, I was going to pull you over no matter what, you just made it easier for me turning onto redwood." Please Help

Cerro Gordo, IA, 50401I was recently charged with a dui, after being pulled over. I had no idea my license was also suspended, but found out after officer checked. I was then pulled from the car after taking a breathalizer test that on paper showed i blew under .08. Officer placed me under arrest and took me to the station where i then procceeded to take the station test and blew a .093. Looking for a good lawyer who might be able to help.

Ballard, KY, 42087I tried to avoid a roadblock,(Safety checkpoint) because I knew I had drank 4 beers, But was not intoxicated, (I just got nervous) I also smoked marijuana about 2-3 hours prior to stop. A state trooper pulled me over after I made a turn to avoid the (safety check), road block, I admitted drinking beer, and admitted smoking marijuana 2-3 hours prior, even told the officer I had some roaches and a small amount of marijuana in my automobile, of course my eyes were red, also due to fatigue. Trooper Clark, advised me that he was one of only seventeen drug recognition experts in Kentucky. And told me if I did a breathalizer, alcohol test, and I didn't fail for .08 or more, he would cite me for the marijuana and send me home, which was less than half a mile away. I blew a .038, not even half the legal limit, He then rushed me to the hospital and told me if I refused blood or urine or both, I would get a felony. I obliged and took the test. which resulted in my 2nd dui charge in 5 years. the first was(June of 2006, 4 years and 10 months prior to this date, which was March 21st 2011. He also told me he is top dog in Kentucky for DUI's and he wished sometimes a lawyer would challenge him in court, said it would be a waste of my money and the courts time. I should save my money for the dui classes and fines( He said, if I say someone gets a DUI, that's what they get.) I asked why he said he would cite me for the marijuana and let me go, then took me to jail. He said it was his moral duty to get pot heads off the street. I started thinking that if anyones eyes are red, at a traffic stop, and they give blood and urine, even if they smoked a week prior, if it's in their system, wont they get a DUI? Please help me not get a 2nd DUI, I have no problem with the possession of marijuana charge, ( It is what it is) I go to court on April 18,2011 at 9:00 am, My job requires me to drive an extensive amount everyday. I am a father of 3, a tax payer, and smoke marijuana, for stress, nerves, and relaxation. I dont believe marijuana is even as harmful as alcohol. I feel confident with the right representation I have a fighting chance to not get my 2nd DUI. On the citation, there wasn't even a mention about the trooper making me submit to a breathalizer if that matters. They have already revoked my license as of today, March 28, 2011. I am so appreciative for any help you can provide.

Guilford, NC, 27407I would like to file an appeal in my DWI case...this is my first infringment. I did not plea guilty nor did I have a trial but I was found guilty based on the factual evidence. My attroney never wanted to go to trial and was very unhelpful.

Guilford, NC, 27407I was leaving campus (North Caroling A&T State University) and I was pulled over for speeding by campus police. I had a cup that contain white wine prior to me being pulled over. I refused to do a field test but I did blow a .11 once I was taken downtown. I have a lawyer, who I'm not satisfied with...at all. I was found guilty, even though I did not go to trial or plead guilty. I just realized that I can appeal, so that is what I'm interested in doing. I need an attroney who will fight for me since my current lawyer did not.
